SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 71 p.m.Double IndemnitySponsored by Bucknell Film/Media Studies

Directed by Billy Wilder (U.S. 1944, 106 minutes). With Barbara Stanwyck, Fred MacMurray, Edward G. Robinson. James M. Cain’s torrid novel had been declared too hot for Hollywood by the Production Code Administration for a decade before Wilder willed the project past the censors — mainly by casting it as a morality tale. Stanwyck accepted the challenge of her nasty role, giving a knockout performance as the seductive murderess, and MacMurray broke from years of typecasting as an affable good guy to make insurance man Walter Neff one of the screen’s most cynical anti-heroes. Campus Theatre, 413 Market Street, Lewisburg

3 p.m.Closing ReceptionCome for a reception following the screening of Double Indemnity at the Campus Theatre, and stay for our latest exhibition, 20’s Something. This solo exhibition features new work by Tulu Bayar, art professor at Bucknell University, including works created in collaboration — and on the subject of deeply collaborative practice — with student artists.
